Aside from gazing at amazing quilts in yet to be released fabrics….
making a personal connection with designers like the lovely Vanessa Christenson of V and Co….
Friends new and dear make it the best! So in the above picture left to right – Becca, Tammy, Julie, me, Vanessa, Joanna and Sally.
As we were visiting around and with Vanessa, she handed each of us a 2.5 charm pack of Color Me Happy – yipppeee!!!
So, Joanna suggested we do a challenge project….below is the amazing poem that graced our emails once we returned from Market….
Hear ye, hear ye,
One and all.
Here’s the challenge,
Heed the call.
The 14th of February,
this Valentine’s hence,
a photo exchange,
6 participants.
Poor rhyming’s allowed,
just sew up your best.
Vanessa’s new line,
and solids the rest.
I thought you might enjoy seeing all of the fabrics we will be playing with over the next few months as we embark on this challenge….should be loads of fun!
I, for one, would love any project ideas anyone has!
Happy Sewing!
I like the look of ‘Color me Happy’ – any idea when it’s going to be released??
I look forward to seeing what you’re going to do with your squares!!
So fun!! Can’t wait to see what you all come up with.
I love the colors!!! The quilts made up in those colors are lovely. I can’t wait to see what you create.
what amazing colours. I would do a simple patchwork mini quilt with the colours grouped together across the diagonal. Can’t wait to see what you make 🙂
How fun…I love that star quilt on the wall…gorgeous! =) Can’t wait to see what you make too.
